A contemporary new text for preparing students to work with the complex patient-care equipment found in today's modern hospitals and clinics.

The text then goes on to offer individual chapters on common and speciality medical equipment, both diagnostic and therapeutic. Self-contained, these chapters can be used in any order, to fit the instructor's class goals and syllabus.
